Applikon and Finesse Announce Solution for Migrating 1010/1030 Controllers Onto DeltaV
SANTA CLARA, Calif., April 16 -- Finesse Solutions, LLC, Applikon Biotechnology B.V. and Applikon Biotechnology Inc, announced the launch of a solution for migrating 1010/1030 controllers onto the DeltaV enabled TruLogic(TM) Controller and TruBio(TM) OS software. This solution, known as TruConnect(TM), is designed to enable users of either the Applikon 1010 and/or 1030 controllers to take full advantage of the additional functionality available when these units are placed on a DeltaV controller enabled by the TruBio(TM) OS.
The role of TruConnect(TM) is to act as a serial interface between the Applikon 1010/1030 controller and DeltaV. To accomplish this role TruConnect(TM) converts the ASCII command set of the Applikon controller and maps it to the Modbus protocol used by the TruBio(TM) OS. The design of TruConnect(TM) allows for a single DeltaV enabled TruLogic(TM) Controller to manage up to eight (8) of the Applikon 1010/1030 units at a competitive price.
Applikon's President, John Chory, stated, "The collaboration with Finesse has enabled us to ensure our customers that their substantial investment in our control products over the years can be easily migrated to an Applikon supported DeltaV solution whenever they require."
"We developed our TruConnect(TM) technology to assist industry leaders such as Applikon in realizing a new, fast, reliable and cost competitive way of interfacing their devices to DeltaV," said Larry West, Executive V.P. Sales and Marketing at Finesse.
